| - | Every character generated in EXODE will have a background. Some character cards already have a background trait on them (e.g. Drachian) and will always generate a character with that background which cannot be changed. Character cards without a background trait will be assigned one randomly from among the current choices. Background traits come with important modifications, both positive and negative, to a character's skills. Note that additional traits and even background-specific equipment are possible as well. | + | Every [[characters|character]] generated in EXODE will have a background.

| - | Currently, there are 21 backgrounds implemented in EXODE -- seven "General World" backgrounds, nine very specific "Special" backgrounds, and five "Exterior Worlds" backgrounds. Both the "Special" or "Exterior Worlds' backgrounds also serve as "Minor Factions" while those with a "General World" background will also be given one of seven other "Minor Faction" traits. | + | Currently, there are 21 backgrounds implemented in EXODE -- seven "General Worlds" backgrounds, nine very specific "Special" backgrounds, and five "Exterior Worlds" backgrounds.
